CNC Router by Inventables This is a small, easier-to-use CNC router. It is run by the software Easel, also from Inventables. Easel requires a free account with Inventables.
The router is a standard wood router. Several kinds of bit are provided. Materials to be cut should be wood.
A vacuum is wired into the switch that controls the router. Without the vacuum, large amounts of fine dust are generated.
The bed is a board with a grid of threaded holes. Hold down devices are attached to the bed with thumb screws. All of thes are in small bins along the front of the bed. A waste board must always be used when cutting to prevent damage to the bed.
